Unification of sales platforms

Project

The independent and distributed structure of Commerzbank systems presents difficulties in terms of cost, systems integration, information sharing, corporate memory generation, service offering from a single point and management of legal requirements for various segments. Commerzbank aims to integrate its individually built sales platforms (10+ independent systems) on a single platform in line with its digital transformation strategy.

Result

Commerzbank achieved a stronger competitive edge, a corporate memory, a 360-degree customer visibility and lowered operating costs. The profitability of the bank and its customers as well as customer satisfaction increased. An infrastructure to catch up with and adapt more easily to current technology trends has been built. Mobile devices made it possible to provide on-site services to the customers in a much shorter time. Employee performance and productivity increased.
